Harry was great

Published on Jul, 2024

Our guide was a delight and so interesting to talk to you. Very accommodating and had helpful tips and information for the area.

Great tour, amazing experience!

Published on Aug, 2023

Traveled to Banff and Lake Louise in Aug 2023 with my wife and kids (14 & 8). Our driver, Amtul, was very friendly and helped us customize our itinerary for the day. The drive to Banff was beautiful and Amtul stopped along the way so we could take some family photos. We visited Bow Falls, the Gondola up to Sulphur Mountain (which alone, was worth the trip), Lake Louise (which even in the rain was gorgeous). We also had ample time to walk around the Town and explore the shops. We kept in contact with Amtul throughout the day via text, to communicate our meet points. At the end of the day, Amtul asked if the kids were hungry and she stopped at a McDonald's in Canmore so we could grab a bite before heading back to our hotel in Calgary. Funny enough, the McDonald's was actually a cool scene with the mountains in the background. Overall, my family had an amazing day. Something they won't soon forget.

Exceptional

Our driver, Searle, was wonderful. He arrived at our hotel early. We only had 2 places where we wanted to go and he filled in all the rest with his experiences. We stopped to grab a quick breakfast and he assisted us with recommending amount of time at each stop to fit in everything for the day. He was knowledgeable of the area and was quick to point out things throughout the day. We would highly recommend this trip and especially our driver!

Fantastic tour
